Question from Philiproberthall (18:27, 24 April 2024)

Hello. Does one have to edit? I got account as safe place to make donations. --Philiproberthall (talk) 18:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Philiproberthall, thanks for the message. You don't have to edit, though your contributions would be appreciated if you're interested! You don't need an account to donate either – you can do that at https://donate.wikimedia.org/ . Please let me know if you have any other questions! —Mx.

Question from Rasimalaskarli (12:19, 26 April 2024)

Hello, I created a new page on the topic of Libyan Socialism. I am now done with the page, but there seems to be an issue when I try to publish. This error pops up: No stashed content found for 0/fa81ef16-0257-11ef-af33-2cea7f823abd --Rasimalaskarli (talk) 12:19, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Rasimalaskarli, thanks for the message. I'm sorry to hear that went wrong. From looking at past discussions, it seems that's an error that can happen when you keep an editing session open for a long time without saving. There's some more information and advice here. See if that helps, and please let me know if you have any follow-up questions. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:22, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Question from Minjeenn (18:25, 26 April 2024)

My article cannot be published and was deleted. Can I bring my deletion article back? And how to do it? Could you please help me? --Minjeenn (talk) 18:25, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Minjeenn, thanks for the message. It looks like Deb left a message on your talk page in the section User talk:Minjeenn#Speedy deletion nomination of ViaBus with some advice. Try using the Wikipedia:Articles for Creation process: rewrite the article as a draft, sticking to concrete facts without promotional language, and wait for an experienced user to review it. New articles about companies do tend to be subjected to a lot of scrutiny, because there are a surprising number of people who violate Wikipedia's terms of service by writing articles for pay without disclosing that that's what they're doing. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions! —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 15:46, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello am asking for the help on reediting my publish --Muhumuza Jimson (talk) 09:05, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Muhumuza Jimson, thanks for the message. I'm afraid I don't understand your question – could you please clarify? What are you trying to do? —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 02:29, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Question from John adison (06:29, 5 May 2024)

Hello, I am here to ask how to edit articles? --John adison (talk) 06:29, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi John adison, thanks for the message. Go to the article you want to edit and click the "Edit" or "Edit source" link to start. (For a few high-profile articles, you won't be able to edit until you have more experience on Wikipedia, but for most articles you should see an "Edit" or "Edit source" link.) More details are at Help:Editing. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions! —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:33, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from Pesch06 (06:36, 6 May 2024)

Where can I find my drafts for new articles? --Pesch06 (talk) 06:36, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi Pesch06, thanks for the message. There are two main ways to start drafts: userspace drafts and the draft namespace. So if you wanted to start a draft for an article about "XYZ County", you could start it in your userspace at a title like User:Pesch06/XYZ County or User:Pesch06/sandbox, or you could start it at Draft:XYZ County (of course substitute the name of the topic you actually want to write about). Let me know if you have any follow-up questions! —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:38, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Sounds good, now what is my userspace? I get that it's somehow linked to my account, but what is it used for? Creating new articles? Pesch06 (talk) 14:46, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Your userspace consists of your userpage (User:Pesch06) and any pages starting with "User:Pesch06", then a slash, and then something else. You're generally free to use them as you see fit, within reason, to help you contribute to the encyclopedia. People often use them to introduce themselves, talk about their work on the wiki, start drafts of articles, and gather links and information to help with their editing. For example, my userspace includes User:Mx. Granger (some basic information about me and what I do on Wikipedia), User:Mx. Granger/sandbox (which I use for testing technical features), User:Mx. Granger/Photo program (a short Python program I wrote that other editors might find useful), and a few pages like User:Mx. Granger/suggestions related to other technical features. You can find a lot more information about userspace pages here: Wikipedia:User pages. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:58, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
